One opinionated workspace from idea to live code.

Skald is built around what teams and AI agents actually need to create good products — an opinionated, best-practice approach to AI-driven development, with strategy, requirements, planning and handoff in one place.

The modules

Everything a product manager needs, in one place

Each module is connected to the next — so strategy reaches the backlog, and requirements reach the engineer without losing context.

Strategy & Goals

Set direction and connect every backlog item to a measurable outcome — built on the Perdoo OKR method, so priorities never feel arbitrary.

Requirements

Turn vague ideas into clear, testable requirements — based on BDD, Gherkin and Specification by Example, so your engineers build from unambiguous criteria.

Domains

Map the system into domains with shared knowledge — based on Domain-Driven Design — so context is captured once and reused by everyone, humans and AI.

Planning

Prioritize the backlog, size the work, and delegate to the right team and release — all from a single board.

Team overview

Each team sees exactly what they need to build next — the right work, with full context, surfaced at the right time.

Journeys

The assistant conducts guided journeys that walk each item from idea to ready-to-build, holding the standard at every step.

AI assistant

AI is embedded in every screen — it discovers gaps, refines specs and drafts plans. It assists your judgment, never replaces it.

Bring your own agent

MCP-ready out of the box — connect your own coding agent straight into Skald and let it work from the same specs and context.

Why Skald is different

Opinionated, where other tools are blank

Issue trackers track tickets. Wikis store pages. Design tools hold screens. None of them tell your team how to go from a fuzzy idea to a buildable spec. Skald does — it guides every item through the same shared workflow.

One method, not three tools. Strategy, specs and planning live together, connected — not scattered across apps that don't talk.
Quality gates built in. A journey won't advance until requirements are clear and questions are resolved.
Context that survives the handoff. Requirements carry their rules, domains and acceptance criteria all the way to the engineer.

Skald vs the stack it replaces

The work of three tools, with a method built in

Most teams stitch a backlog tool, a wiki and a design file together by hand. Skald connects all three into one guided, AI-native workflow.

AI-native, not AI bolt-on

Your coding agent, plugged into the source

Connect Claude Code or any MCP-capable coding agent straight to Skald. It reads your requirements, rules, examples and domain context from the same place your team does — full context, first pass.

No three rounds of clarification. The spec, domains and acceptance criteria travel with the work.
You stay in control. AI drafts and suggests; you decide what ships.
MCP-ready out of the box. Any AI coding agent can work from your specs — no copy-paste.
